Hi guys and guyesses, (yep - still early stages ! ) Wondering if there is s.k.s. out there with access to 1851 census who may be able to help. (I don't have addresses so I presume an index would help. ) I'm looking for George GIBBONS (age c.30) maybe Needle Finisher or similar, maybe in Redditch or Tardebigge, and wife Jane (nee CARR) age c.28. I don't know any children born before 1851 - there are none that old with them in 1861. Also - George's parents Joseph GIBBONS and Mary (nee WILKINSON) who would both be late 60s if still alive. Married at Tardebigge and children born at Redditch - so hopefully still there. cheers Graham Dixon (Auckland, New Zealand)
